Mishicot High School has joined forces with the University of Wisconsin Green Bay to help their students get a head start on their college education.
Rising Phoenix-Mishicot is the second Rising Phoenix partnership and is modeled after the inaugural cohort of 25 students with the Manitowoc Public School District that launched in Fall 2020.
The program was created with the goals of reducing college debt, closing the achievement gap, and providing rigorous learning opportunities for students in Northeast Wisconsin communities.
Mishicot Superintendent Dr. Paul J. Orlich, said of the program, “The goals of the Rising Phoenix program align well with Mishicot’s goal that all students will grow academically through participation in a rigorous and relevant curriculum.”
